-Erick Wershing, of Eagle Lake, was

On the 18th and 18th inst, the Oma-
ha road will sell tickets to Mankato from
points as far as Blue Earth City, Worth
ington, Luverne, Pipestone and Hender-
son, at the rate of one and one-ffth fare
for the round trip. They will put on
extra coaches if necessary, and there is
no doubt large crowds will be induced
by the reduced rates to attend the en-
campment.
Mrs. Jacob Boehnhardt applied for
lodging and protection last night at po-
lice headquarters. She is a German
woman, and resides near the Lutheran
church. She claimed that her husband
tried to kill her, but it is likely that this
idea is fanciful, as her mind is deranged.
The police gave her lodging, and it is
probable that she will be examined for
insanity, as she has been out of her right
mind for three or four weeks past.
Beginning next Sunday the Cannon
Valley road will run Sunday excursion

Guard mounting occurred soon after

Band followed. The band is pronounced

upon its auditors last evening.
How the Night Was Spent.
An unusually large number of the
boys left the camp on passes last night
to enjoy themselves in the city Passes
are required of persons returning to
camp after ten o'clock, and the unfortu-
nate straggler who docs not possess one
is doomed to spend the night in the
guard house unless he can successfully
"run the guard" The city streets were
full of the uniformed men until late
hour last night. Many of the militia at |
tended the dance at the Opera House
given by the band, while many others
found attractions elsewhere. The even
ing in camp was passed very quietly, |
and everyone was rolled in his blanket |
by ten o'clock, when the tap of the drum
warned the late ones to extinguish their
lights. The guard was posted immedi-
ately after guardmount, but challenged
no one until the countersign was given
1t ten O'Clock.

Yesterday was spent by the different
companies in settling down to camp life,
and getting their tents in order. The
regular routine of camp duties did not
begin until after supper last evening.
The first exercise to be participated in
by all the troops was dress parade, which
occurred at $40 O'Clock last evening. 1t
was more than usually accurate for the
first day, and was encouraging to the of
ficers. Several of the men were over

last from her perilous position between st.
Mary's and Fernandina. She had run
on to the breakers with a cargo of railroad
iron valued at $75, 600. and was in danger of
